Army Has Labeled Pro-Life Americans “Terrorists” for Over 7 Years

0

Last week, the Army came under fire for a training program that labeled pro-life Americans and pro-life groups as terrorists.

But that was not eh first time the training program had been used. It has been used for 7 years before national outcry finally expose it and forced Army officials to cancel the training program.

As LifeNews.com reported, Journalist Sam Shoemate exposed the terrorism briefing on X (Twitter) that was held at Fort Liberty (Bragg) yesterday where they listed several Pro-Life organizations as “terrorist organizations.”

The military facility has since walked back the slide with a post on X (Twitter).

“After conducting a commander’s inquiry, we determined that the slides presented on social media were not vetted by the appropriate approval authorities, and do not reflect the views of the XVIII Airborne Corps and Fort Liberty, the U.S. Army or the Department of Defense,” the post said. Mr. Shoemate told his readers on X to “keep in mind they’re not labeling them as extremist organizations , but as terrorist organizations.”

“These slides will no longer be used, and all future training products will be reviewed to ensure they align with the current DoD anti-terrorism guidance,” said the fort in its post.

But a new report indicates the training program called pro-life Americans terrorists for years.

Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said in a letter to Sen. Ted Budd, North Carolina Republican, the slideshow “has been used for at least the last seven years by the Directorate of Emergency Services at Fort Liberty to train Soldiers as they prepare to take on installation access control duties.”

“I want to make clear that these slides do not represent the official policy or views of the U.S. Army and pre-date Army Directive 2024-7 (Handling Protest, Extremist, and Criminal Gang Activities),” Ms. Wormuth said in the letter dated Tuesday.

“Senior Army leaders did not direct these slides to be used in training, nor were they aware of their use until media reporting last week,” Ms. Wormuth said. “These slides will no longer be used to train Soldiers at Fort Liberty.”

Mr. Budd, who blasted the targeting of pro-life groups in a July 12 letter signed by 87 House and Senate Republicans, called the slide’s multi-year use “outrageous and unacceptable.”

“In response to our letter, the Army Secretary disclosed that the training slides labeling pro-life Americans as terrorists have been used for at least 7 years,” Mr. Budd wrote on X. “Totally outrageous and unacceptable.”

He said the Army “must fully renounce this attack on pro-life Americans and conduct a full investigation to ensure similar materials aren’t being used at other installations.”

The slide was clearly offensive to the majority of Americans who are pro-life and a pro-life group depicted in it has condemned it.

“The slide you see here followed right after a slide about ISIS, a terror group in the Middle East,” Shoemate explained. “The organizations labeled by the army as terror organizations include National Right to Life and Operation Rescue.”

“They also included a screenshot of a license plate with “IM4IT,” which is a plate many Pro-Life citizens put on their car which implies normal citizens are terrorists if they display this plate,” Shoemate elaborated.

“The slide goes on to mention activities which these organizations participate in which include being Pro-Life, opposing Roe v Wade, demonstrating and protesting (a 1st Amendment protected right), “Truth Displays,” and picketing,” he continued. “They also falsely attribute the bombing of abortion clinics to National Right to Life.”

“Keep in mind they’re not labeling them as extremist organizations (which would still be crazy), but as terrorist organizations,” Shoemate said. “The military and Dept of Defense are insanely out of control. Service-members are being indoctrinated to view Pro-Life groups as the enemy.”

The presentation and the slide accusing pro-life groups and pro-life Americans of being terrorists was quickly condemned by pro-life Congressman Elise Stefanik.

“The Biden Administration’s Department of Defense is allegedly attempting to teach our service members that pro-life organizations in America are “terrorist groups,” she said on X in response, and called on top political and military officials to condemn the presentation and slide.

“This is despicable. @POTUS, @SecDef, and @SecArmy, must immediately condemn and open an investigation into this vile and dangerous attempted indoctrination of our service members,” she said.

This is not the first time that peaceful pro-life Americans have been called terrorists.

A database funded by the federal government and run by a research group at the University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) recently labeled Students for Life of America (SFLA) as a “terrorist group.”

UMD’s National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START) operates the research database known as Profiles of Individual Radicalization in the United States (PIRUS).

According to The College Fix, PIRUS “purportedly tracks ‘ideologically motivated criminal activity’ and known ‘extremists’ through 2021.”

“[T]wo Students for Life of America members who were arrested for writing ‘black pre-born lives matter’ on a sidewalk in 2020 are recorded in PIRUS,” the Fix reported. “This puts them among white supremacists, jihadist groups, and other threats.”

“Moreover, SFLA appears under a ‘Terrorist_Group’ label in the raw dataset,” the Fix added.

SFLA spokeswoman Kristi Hamrick blasted this labeling as “an attempt to smear the reputations of peaceful students who use their free speech right to advocate for mothers and their children, born and preborn.”

“It is a highly offensive and highly suspect organization that can’t tell the difference between students with signs and actual terrorists threatening violence,” Hamrick told The Christian Post last month.

And Joe Biden’s FBI has put pro-life Americans in prison and singled them out as “potential terrorists.”
